Stabilization of DLA in a wedge

Abstract

We consider Diffusion Limited Aggregation (DLA) in a two-dimensional wedge. We prove that if the angle of the wedge is smaller than π/4\pi/4, there is some a>2a>2 such that almost surely, for all RR large enough, after time RaR^a all new particles attached to the DLA will be at distance larger than RR from the origin. This means that DLA stabilizes in growing balls, thus allowing a definition of the infinite DLA in a wedge via a finite time process.
